Spatone Iron

All the iron you need, without the heavy metal.

Prevent iron deficiency effectively without constipation

Clinically proven to not cause constipation, stomach irritation or nausea (1)

Why should I take an iron supplement?
Low iron is one of the most common mineral deficiencies affecting women in their lifetime. If an iron deficiency is left untreated, it can lead to Anaemia. Symptoms of iron deficiency are similar to those of Anaemia and can be difficult to recognise: (2)

Feeling fatigued

Brain drain and poor concentration

Negative effects on your immune system leading to more infections

Decreased endurance and poor tolerance to exercise

Dry, brittle hair and nails

Most at risk of iron deficiency:

Pregnant women
Menstruating women
Vegetarians
Teenagers
The elderly
 

Are all iron supplements the same?
Definitely not. Traditional iron supplements like ferrous sulphate have low rates of absorption so you need to take high doses to restore your iron levels to normal.

Spatone delivers a much more absorbable form of iron, so you can take lower, safer starting dose yet still effectively prevent iron deficiency. (1,3,4)

Why doesn’t Spatone cause constipation like other iron supplements?
The answer is simple. Because Spatone is easily absorbed into the body, you only need to take small amounts to get your recommended daily intake of iron.

Spatone leaves very little unabsorbed iron in the bowel for excretion and therefore minimizes common side effects like constipation, stomach irritation and nausea. Spatone has been clinically proven to be effective without these harmful side effects.

Why should I consider Spatone if I am pregnant?
35% of pregnant women are iron deficicent in their first trimester and up to 85% in their third trimester5. Post natal women often continue to experience reduced iron levels and fatigue caused by blood loss during birth and milk production. Spatone has been clinically proven in pregnancy to help prevent iron deficiency without the side effects associated with high dose iron supplements. (3)
